READER COMMENTS

"There is an urgency, gravity and tension in the book that makes it impossible to put down. Russell has created a world that has layers and layers of richness." ~ Marit Røkeberg, Norway

"Enchanters is filled with passion, magic, love of life. It's engaging and heartfelt. The Call is very visual and I love the journey through the magic forest as Glys discovers herself." ~ Leo Pando, USA

"I can't tell you how lovely I found this story! So beguiling and beautiful. It has followed me around for days, distracting quietly, sidetracking me. I love the way the magic calls to Glys, the overlaying of one world by another, the way looking with new eyes reveals the truth... it takes me back to childhood and the magic of mystery, the magic of possibility." ~ Lesley Aitkin, Australia

"Fast-paced and exciting. The relationship between the Enchanter and human worlds becomes ever more interesting. I am already waiting for the next book." ~ Noor O'Neill, USA

"Russell's language is vivid and imaginative. He doesn't just describe, he paints with words." ~ Sofia Darin, Italy

"I really enjoyed Enchanters. The book is so entertaining, it reads like a movie." ~ Matthew Young, Australia

"It's such a magical piece. I can't remember ever reading a book that conveys such a genuine love for nature. Thank you so much for taking me to such a dreamy place, and for waking up my appreciation for the natural life that we all too often neglect." ~ Irene Stuart, Canada

"The writing is superb! I fell right into it and understood all that action, place and characters because of the fantastic descriptive language." ~ Marcia Tanner, USA

"I love the book ... The journey to Myradelle and the magic creatures along the way are stunning. The Call is subtle and full of danger. You could link this story to what a lot of teenagers go through, a need to understand the larger world as they start to become aware of it… the need to leave the parental nest despite the risk of failing... but they still go, willingly, instinctively. Enchanters creates a beautiful magical world just beyond our consciousness in radiant colors. Myradelle reminds me of the elfin world in Lord of the Rings, which was so mysterious, and drew you in like a spell. ~ Dorotka Sapinska, Australia

"I thoroughly enjoyed Enchanters and cannot wait for the next book. It says a great deal about how we humans relate to our planet. I am very glad that Adam and Glys got together..." ~ Brian Ray, USA

"Enchanters is a captivating book on the nature of magic… It is a very beautiful book and I really enjoyed reading it. I can't wait to read the next one." ~ Rachel Simmons, Australia (12 years old)

"Enchanters was a fun reading - like Lord of the Rings, but there was a lot of action and it moved quickly, keeping the reader in suspense. Lots of imagination. I can see it turning into a computer game." ~ Sam Mitchell, USA

"The mood and atmosphere are wonderfully handled, and the conflicts are refreshingly new." ~ Colleen Anderson, Canada

"Glys' journey is one we'd all like to take, one filled with bizzare adventures, glorious, magical companions, and romance. This book has heart, something often missing from contemporary fantasy stories." ~ Christine Stafford, Australia
